Jalen all star season babyyyy
Alpi had to play against Edey once and Wemby twice. I'm sure he has a great game coming up soon. Reed will get more run in games that are not so close, I believe.
Post up Jabri more would help the offense a ton. Also the pick and pop with Jabari would balance the offense.
Go Rockets!
Wembanyama match up is just too hard. Even with edey but rockets will surely dominate with jalen playing like this and alpi bullying a center in the post
Green loved adams screens
Everybody has been talking about Udoka's rotations and them not being consistent but keep forgetting that he did the same thing to start out last season. I think he does it on purpose for teaching players to always be ready and to teach them that they have to be getting the job done or he'll put in someone who will. As well as just looking for chemistry between certain players or groups of players.
Team is still learning. Lost against Charlotte, the day after won against Memphis which is better team than Hornets. Lost against San Antonio, the day after won. Everything will be better, I believe it.
Seems like the roles are reversed this season, Jalen playing great while Alperen playing subpar hope Alperen wakes up soon.
Watch all the jalen haters come storming back 😂
JG
Jalen Green was ALWAYS HIM
‼️🚀
Yeah I agree Alpi will definitely bounce back
trade Turkish，i always hate him.
When we criticized Jalen, it was him being unable to drop uncontested 3-pointers. In this game he scored them but how reliable is he going to be? That is the point. I hope he is always efficient. If so, then Rockets will have a great chance to qualify for the play-offs.
Well last year i keep writin Alpe this team has no trust on u… and u sign a contract ?!? now just 5 more games and will throw u under the bus mark my words….
Jalen is playing and acting like a star. he wants the ball when they needed points and very compose handling the ball in crunch time.
Much needed win. Jalen looks much better. Sengun will figure it out. No worries there.
Loved the moment when it was 3:10 left in the game and the spurs came back only 2 points.. udoka had time out and jalen green sit esspecially the chair in front of Alperen and fvv was near,only these 3 talked during the timeout not not anyone else and they looked like a real teammates motivating each other and telling we will work together and win today..and the deposit become 8 in one minute with the actionsvof these 3 ,u need your best mans play together like this if u will go playoffs
GO ROCKETS!!!!
So happy to see the Bro Steve O back after all this time even though he is only around about 10% awesome to see him back.
Steve had 16 screen assists
We should’ve gave Jalen the 5 year deal
This is not an excuse but the refrees should have a standart on foul calls, Alperens 3rd and 5th fouls are the same , the same defensive stance from a Center raised arms and feet on the ground ,when Sochan attacked Alpy its defensive foul and Alpy had 9pts 9 asists in early game while wemby had nothing ..and when Alpy attacked on wemby same way as Sochan did it was offensive foul and 5th on Alpy.Why????this is not fair judgement when he was in his rhtym after hitting his 3 ball,Alpy was much better than Wemby today..and his teammates and coach should react to these not fair calls more..Alpy should learn from Steven Adams how to avoid fouls ,Steven Adams let 3 easy san Antonio layups when Houston was up 18 and game came to 12 in less than a minute in 3rd qrt,guess what happened no one even udoka told him nothing ..and he had no foul problem 😅 if Alpy was the one guess what was happening???
Reed just hasn't been good and Udoka only gives guys on the fringe a small window to show if they should play.
I think Wemby is a psychological problem for Sengun because even Jock had some success against him in the post.
Udoka has no offensive system which properly uses Alperen.. Udoka locked up Alperen's game.. he made a huge mistake by signing that contract.. but he should get out of houston as soon as he can.. houston is trash team, full of selfish ball hog streetball caliber players..
Where all the keep everyone and trade Green ppl at ?, I've been arguing with yall for two years , he's been the team's best player so far this year , yall was trynna give up on a 22 year old younger at the time. Also teams have been abusing us in the paint with Alpi at center
Last year Sengune initiated the offense. Therefore, His out put was skewed. Now that IME has finally stopped the disrespect, and put the damn ball in Jalen's hands, Alfred is forced to be more efficient. Unfortunately, his game is just not at an all-star level. Alfred Needs a mid-range game and not be so dependent on post ups. It's predictable
These Rockets fans are high or something?! You are talking about a single possession where Alpy allowed Wemby to switch back on him? Are you for real? Count how many times Sengun got the ball when Wemby was out and Zach Collins was on the court. I dare you to stop whatever useless thing you are doing that will benefit noone and count that thing like beans MF. This team needs a Jason Kidd that will see the right matchup. I am excited for Sheppard because in his 3 minutes, he was the only one in the entire game who made it a priority to capitalize on Sengun mismatches. You are not giving up the ball when Wemby is out and give the ball to Alpy when Wemby is in and say "Save us!". When it comes to Jalen Green, I am not the kinda guy that will say he played great when his shot are dropping and he is not when he misses those shots. I criticize the way he plays and he is playing the wrong way most of the time. His role models should be Anthony Edwards and Ja Morant. He is as, if not more, athletic than both, yet he settles for jump shots too often. Even in this game, when he dribbled the ball too much, he lost balance rising up for the shot. But when he lets the game come to him and more importantly when he attacks the paint to let the defender sag, he will be an All Star. I wouldn't be surprised if those shots didn't fall. Jalen has something he can count on in every single game. He should be living in the air and near the rim. And they need to stop putting Amen and Sengun on the court at the same time unless Amen stays in the dunker spot or positions well. They always bring the help from his defender to Alpy. I am not even mentioning the lack of action when Alpy is the post.
Is it weird I want to see more offensive plays ran for jabari? LIke lets give the guy a "Chance" to succeed. for fucks sake. Throw a few more plays his way other than iso ball jalen. I will say tho I love Jalen's start of the year. He just seems like a different dude.
Much better showing by the Rockets. Way to show maturity and hang in there.💪🏻
Jeremy Sochan literally bodying a near max contract player :> franchise player it is
Been so hyped to catch this episode love from England
FVV 11pts on 14 shots. I can’t do this anymore lol
The rockets will go as far as Jalen takes them and he will lead them to the playoffs this season. Great show and Go Rockets!!
Reed is still scared to shoot. Once he overcomes that, he'll be special and scary. Ill give him 2 or 3 years since our coach is Ime, not Silas.
